    I planted a Rollina tree about 18 months ago and it’s flowering now. Can’t wait to see how it tastes!

    Despite living on a tropical island (Barbados) all my life, I'm amazed at the number of tropical fruit I've never seen before, far less tasted. Great video series!

      It's native to Trinidad and Venezuela but should grow fine in Barbados.

      Barbados native plants would have been devastated by British colonization. It was all about sugar then so I thinks that's a big reason

    My experience with Rollinia, someone brought me a chunk, of this, and me being squeamish I was not about to try it. It looked slimy, and just gross. but my friend insisted.
    what a great fruit, I like it so much better than the other annona type fruit. and the texture is not slimy, its more buttery melt in your mouth. which I can handle.
    and yes, it tasted like lemon meringue pie.

    • @WeirdExplorer
      @WeirdExplorer  8 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Yeah it's really tasty. My favorite anona so far. The green one I had was slimier, so it probably depends on the ripeness of the fruit.

    @hotazzbiznach 8 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    Here in Costa Rica they call this Biriba and it is my favorite fruit i have tried thus far. i like to eat them very ripe, and to me its like if lemon meringue and banana cream pies had a baby lol there is 1 vendor right at the entrance of Puerto Viejo who has them quite often and they are usually ripe. he is the only one i have found so far who sells them. you can find sour sop everywhere around here, but like you, i have had many issues with bugs in them, so for me the biriba is a much better option since it has such a thick skin you never find bugs in them.

    • @WeirdExplorer
      @WeirdExplorer  8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Ah that's lucky to have a vendor nearby that sells rolinia. I can get soursop here in the usa, but I can't eat them anymore.

    I've had a fair few exotic fruits but never the one in this video. I hope to encounter one, one day.I was delighted to find fresh tamarind pods last week, which were delicious. I've only ever had the paste before.I also found a seller of my favourite fruit, the mangosteen. They're very hard to get hold of in this part of the uk and when they do appear, they're very expensive.

    • @WeirdExplorer
      @WeirdExplorer  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      That's a nice find! Mangosteens are certainly worth the trouble to track them down

    • @emmabroughton2039
      @emmabroughton2039 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      They certainly are. I was delighted at the price too, it works out at about £9 for 500g so about $12 for 17 ounces. Much better than the £1.50 each last time I saw them for sale.

    • @WeirdExplorer
      @WeirdExplorer  8 ปีที่แล้ว +3

  • @easemailboxes
    @easemailboxes 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The green one you held up is a different variety. I think one is rollinia (Brazilian custard apple) and the green one is a traditional custard apple (cherimoya) these are always green and sometimes green with black. Notice the spires on the skin are different.

    • @WeirdExplorer
      @WeirdExplorer  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      could have been something else I suppose, but it wasn't a cherimoya.

  • @alicepearce4597
    @alicepearce4597 8 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The green ones reminds me of an atemoya only bigger. The yellow one looks delicious.
